Edmunds' Expert Review
by the Edmunds Experts
Pros
- Very good use of interior space, unique styling inside and out, powerful V8 engine.
Cons
- Only seats four passengers.
What’s new
The FX45 is an all-new crossover SUV from Infiniti. It is performance-oriented, and therefore boasts V8 power, sharp handling and standard all-wheel drive.
Edmunds says
A stylish melding of form and function. More than just a tall station wagon, the FX45 has several unique features to recommend it to the pseudo-SUV buyer.

FX 45 Infiniti wonder-car

2003 INFINITI FX45 AWD 4dr SUV (4.5L 8cyl 5A)
We have put 101,000 miles on this car. We have not spent a single penny on repair. Not one. I am blown away. I ran it to Amarillo the other day, 90 MPH most of the way and pulled 19 MPG. This car is fabulous. It looks like a cat on steroids and handles like one, rain, snow or shine. Best car I have ever owned, and I have owned many.
Could never trade it in

2003 INFINITI FX45 AWD 4dr SUV (4.5L 8cyl 5A)
It is the Liquid Cooper with brick/black leather, tech package. Regular servicing has been all that has been needed other than a couple manufacturer covered recalls. I went to trade it in a few times and could never bring myself to do it. It is a blast to drive and has been reliable. Have had it since new in 2003.

5 out of 5 starsAndy German, 09/25/2016
2003 INFINITI FX45 AWD 4dr SUV (4.5L 8cyl 5A)
After 210k miles it's time to say goodbye to a truly great vehicle. Lacking today's technology it retains its pure sex appeal and performance as a ground breaker in SUV Crossover design. My black on black beauty will be sorely missed. Not an easy drive out of the box but comfortable willing companion for the last 13 years. Stiff ride and sensitive throttle became a thrill. Always ready … to kick ass and take names. I will miss this car.
Where are you Cayenne ?
4.13 out of 5 starsR BAZ, 01/25/2003
2003 INFINITI FX45 AWD 4dr SUV (4.5L 8cyl 5A)
Just pick up my FX45 and love it so
far.!!..I drive a 00' Lincoln Navigator
and was looking for something fun to
drive ..yet not sacrificing going to a
car. The FX45 handles superbly and
hugs the corner as well as my
brothers G35. It's exhaust system
has a sweet sound that resembles
the likes of a corvette. If your going to
use the VPP, better get one fast
before … the dealers realize supply and
demand.
